No one. Portland last year left a bitter taste in our mouths because we knew we underperformed. The Warriors outplayed us and it is evident in how everyone is not freaking out about the loss. It's respectable to lose a worthy adversary, and this is hopefully the start of a killer rivalry.
Portland left a bitter taste not just because we underperformed but also because of the way it ended. Please, no one post that 0.9 second gif. I get upset everytime I see that.
Im just glad we didn't lose to those flopping panzies in LA. My hate for them is on another level compared to the rest
As much as I don't really like the Warriors, we lost to the best team in the league. Just wish we took one more game from them though. I actually think losing in the Finals to Cleveland would've been worse. I don't see how Cleveland is a better team than us. Whoever won the West was going to win it all. That said, I hope and pray LeBron makes it 6 straight Finals appearences next season, and we finally get over the hump and eliminate LBJ and drop his record to... what would it be... Possbily 2-5 if they lose this year? Lol
probably the Spurs. even if they are an in-state or division rival, i have so much respect for them and they don't have a single player that i absolutely dislike. grizzlies would probably be 2nd.
Im ok with losing to any team, regardless of ranking. What gets me is losing because of sloppy game play. Game 4 was well executed and it looked as if we were playing as a team. Most of the other games seemed like certain players didnt have their head in the game.
Cavs because I actually like LeBron and Kyrie, and their fanbase hasn't had a whole lot to cheer for in a long time. I hate the media slurpage and new bandwagoners of GS. 2nd would be Grizzlies, although that would hurt since I think we're better than them. I'm gllad we beat the Clippers and Mavericks. Would also hate to lose to the Spurs. Their fans are annoying.
Noone except the Spurs. At least losing to the defending Champions or the favourite ( for me eventual) champions in Golden state. I would be ashamed if Houston beat GSW and lost in the Finals to Cleaveland. It would be the most bitter way to finish. And embarassing. Because the Rockets are a much better team than the Cavs.
Would have been better to make it to the finals no doubt, but I think GSW is a better team than Cleveland and I think they will be the NBA champions.
Rockets over achieved this season. I am happy they got out of the 1st round to WCF. I will be even happier if the Cavs beat the Warriors.
Arguably, we lost to the only team clearly superior to the Rockets in the NBA....and without two starters. Only the most biased haters, and there are many on this forum, would consider that a failure.
We lost to the team with easily the best record in the league, a team that not only had the MVP and quality players at every starting position, but a very deep bench, as well. We played them close in two of our losses, games we could have won with a break here and there, pulled off a decisive win, and all with 2 starters in suits. The topper? We played them in the Western Conference Finals, an outstanding accomplishment, especially considering that we came out of easily the toughest division in the league, and managed the second seed in easily the toughest conference. The Rockets had a great season, folks. Sure, none of us like how it ended, but the franchise took a huge step in the right direction. We lost to the right team. No confusion from where I sit.
